I have a wide, bulbous nose and I was wondering if with Rhinoplasty I can reduce my nose to something like the picture below. I want my results to look natural. I am not aiming to narrow down my nose and making it thin, I have no problem with a small round nose. I just want a nose that will go with my features and facial structure. I would appreciate constructive criticism and what you think should be done to achieve the look I want. I also want to know if the results I want are possible.

Answer: Fixing a wide bulbous tip
Rhinoplasty is the right surgery to help improve your widw bulbous tip.In your case, I would suggest the open technique since it would allow for better visualization of the cartilages. Your cartilages are very large and will need to be reduced and trimmed. The tip should always be viewed together with the rest of the nose. So you may need additional work on the bridge, nostrils or the width of the nose as well. These might all contribute to getting your nose to have the best overall proportion. The only thing I would caution you about is that your skin appears thick. This will limit how much definition you will be able to see in the tip of your nose after your rhinoplasty. I don't think that you will be able to get a very sculpted appearance so set yourself some realistic goals. Other than that you should get a greta result. Go for it. Good luck.

Answer: Can my Wide, Bulbous Nose Be Reduced in Size? Yes!
A wide bulbous nose can definitely be narrowed. This is a frequently requested change done in rhinoplasty and can be done in a way that keeps your nose in harmony with the rest of your facial and ethnic features.
